Hello, a tipp: You can use wikEd with the Gadgets-Extensions (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Gadgets), so you don't need Greasemonkey.

Simply edit common.js to customise the tool bar (didn't remember where I read it). I basically add code like this: http://www.skoffer.com/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.js&oldid=250 to the newly created page named Common.js which I created as admin (something called sysop -- or something like this --in mediawiki language). 4. I succesfully installed wikEd using Greasemonkey (a firefox add-on) which has nice editing tools. The good news is that It works for any wiki. The bad news is that it only works locally (i.e., for users that have enabled the wikEd script in their firefox configuration) which means it didn't solve my problem. Hope it helps a bit. Hope to hear better ideas. Cheers, Jean Pierre > 2) Set the predicate (preg_match) to zero in Parser.php (689) [it still > parses it as a table] > 3) removed all the content of index.php !!
